Canadian National #8020 leading eastbound MKCAS 14 merchandise train         
Eastbound Union Pacific merchandise train(MKCAS 14) being led by Canadian National #8020 past Kirkwood City Park, across from the Amtrak station, on a beautiful mid April morning in lovely soft light. CN equipment is not commonly seen on this line, so I hurriedly grabbed this shot as the train sped by!!

Pat Scott General That was actually MKCAS 14, a merchandise train. I like your angle better, as the light was more favorable. Just 50 feet down the tracks where I was, it curved into the shadow too much. 4/17/2008 2:36:01 PM
William Acord General Thanks Pat!! Like they say, you learn something new every day!! Today I am tied down doing all the "Honey do's" that I postponed until today, so I could have yesterday free to chase the UP6936 Centennial train!! LOL 4/17/2008 3:12:51 PM
